Dominions 2 in Germany

[PrinzMegaherz]

Hi guys!

Today I tried to find a way to buy dominions 2. As no shop in my area has this game, I would like to order it directly from shrapnelgames.

However, I think its forbidden to import computer games that have no maturity rating. i'm not sure about this, but I dont think that dominions 2 has been rated so far

Is it maybe possible to buy a cd key from shrapnel and download the game via Emule?

it's not forbidden. some shops ( www.okaysoft.de for example ) have a special section for import games without a rating. you just have to prove you're 18+. ( irgendeine kenn-nummer von deinem personalausweis )

if you order at shrapnel's store, i think there's an option that they send it to you without the box ( 'büchersendung' sozusagen ) and you don't have to pay the extra taxes.

Thanks for your answer!
I`ll have a try.

And anyway Dom2 doesn't come in a box, only a manual with the CD inside
Lastly I don't think than German customs opens the thousands of small packets coming in - for sure they don't do it in France as I almost never have to pay VAT (unless I buy 3 or 4 items, in which case they notice it ...)
